Delivery was a month back and im trying to eat healthy for recovery and feeding. My mom is unsure if millets like ragi bajra are ok during this time. Anyone added these in their post delivery diet?
From my personal experience, yes, I ate millets after my delivery, and they were fine. I found them quite wholesome and easy to digest. But everyone's body is different, so if you have any doubts, maybe a quick chat with your doctor could help.
Oh yes, millets are totally fine and even recommended after delivery. My doctor and dietician both suggested including them for their iron and calcium content. I had ragi porridge and bajra rotis; they helped me feel strong and full.
Millets? Ha! Honestly, after pregnancy, I just wanted anything I could grab and eat quickly, like, within 30 seconds. But yeah, if you have the energy to cook them, they're super healthy! My mom made me bajra khichdi, and it was quite filling.
Haanji, millets are actually quite good after pregnancy, especially if you're breastfeeding. They are packed with nutrients and fibre, which is great for energy and digestion. I often had ragi dosa or jowar roti, and it worked well for me and my milk supply.
After my pregnancy, I was very mindful of my recovery and nutrition. Millets are definitely a healthy choice, full of good stuff. Just make sure to introduce any new food gradually and listen to your body. They're a good source of energy, which you'll need!
